Mar. 4, 2007 - Raleigh NC Relocation >>Where is everyone coming from in the Triangle?
Between 2000 and 2005 the Raleigh/Cary population increased by 19 percent which made it the 18th fastest growing region in the U.S. So, where do all the people coming to the Triangle come from? According to the IRS the five counties in the nation that provided us with the most people during that period were: Fairfax County, Va. (2,397), Los Angeles County (2,089), Cook County, Ill. (2,034) and Suffolk County, Long Island, N.Y. (1,875). The leading reasons for coming here were the job market, affordable housing and less crime.
